ir0b0t's Journal: headless

The server running egroupware had been doubling as a workstation. Nothing ran quickly anymore.

We decided not to start gnome on that machine in the future and devote all available ram and processor cycles to serving the network. The monitor, keyboard and mouse were removed.

I'm using the Emperor Linux laptop (Lenovo & Ubuntu Breezy) for all work now.

The egroupware clients are running much more quickly now. No swap memory is needed. I had underestimated how much ram is used on a busy workstation.
